I'M a Pessimist

I’m a Pessimist 
We will cry even more 
The misery will increase
The suffering won’t stop 
We won’t get away from life with ease 
We are the gloomy creatures 
We are sentenced to grief 
What life but a nice covered book 
We read, but nothing firmed in mind 
The kitsch dominate the art 
Wars run the world 
And hate heads the chart 
Love will diminish 
We are heading to perdition with a leash 
Made with solid gold and vile wish 
Can we flee this darkness?
Can’t we just life break and build an utopia
I’m sick of sharing the oxygen 
With wolverine people, bloody monsters 
And haters whom pop up with no reason 
The elements of life are five 
Hypocrisy, hate, blood, lies and some love 
We are brain-cuffed with something with something the call school 
Pressed with something they call traditions 
Free yourself with something they call art 
And the pressure will finally lessen 
But sometimes I think quieting life 
Because them crazy bald heads as Bob Marley said 
Will eat up you corn and ask for more bread 
Because money is time and time is money 
They kill more children, chewing their gummy 
Simply because we are human-beings 
We will kill each other and branch to several teams 
Maybe you’ll say I’m a pessimist, in life I can’t pass 
And if you ask: ‘’ how can you describe the glass is it half empty or half full?’’
I’ll say… it’s a foggy glass
